- Afghan_Church abstract "The Church of St. John the Evangelist, better known as the Afghan Church (Marathi: अफ़ग़ान चर्च) is an Anglican Church in South Mumbai, India, built by the British to commemorate the dead of the disastrous defeat in the First Afghan War of 1838. The church is located in Navy Nagar in the Colaba area of Mumbai (Bombay). It is considered to be an improved version of the Church of St. John in the Wilderness which was built in Dharamsala, Himachal Pradesh. From the time of their construction, both these churches are believed to have hosted members of the White Brotherhood who believe that Lord Jesus visits them from the Cave of Light in the Dauladhar Mountains even today.As well as British soldiers, it also commemorates different Indian regiments, primarily the Dharamsala battalion of Ranjit Singh's army from Lahore. Records also mention that only one person, one Surgeon William Brydon - a medical officer - three out of 16,000 men, returned safely to Jalalabad to tell the tale of a war in which the British suffered their heaviest defeat yet. The other two survivors were the French General who led Ranjit Singh's army and his administrative head, a Parsi gentleman called Nowrojee both of whom them settled in Dharamsala and founded a Tea House which got damaged in 1907 when the bell tower of the McLeodganj church fell on it after the earthquake. Both the churches are similar except that the McLeodganj Church does not have the spire now.".
